Los Angeles Lakers HD Highlights Recaps

www.lakersmedia.com

If you are Laker fan, click - you'll enjoy the link, especially if you missed the game/do not appreciate limited ESPN highlights. If not, ignore and consider the Lakers as your favorite team.

not too shabby....this was before he picked up smoking I suppose. Then again, Vlade Divac used to do both at the same time - even during his early Laker days.

Shaq to Nash: 'I will not let you down'

Shaquille O'Neal is on his way to Phoenix, literally.

O'Neal's physical exam is the only prerequisite for Phoenix's acquisition of O'Neal for Shawn Marion and Marcus Banks to take place today. O'Neal is on a flight to the Valley this morning and is scheduled to arrive midday.

The expectation is that O'Neal will pass the physical and a trade call will be placed with the league to consummate the deal by the end of the day. O'Neal could even be in attendance at US Airways Center tonight for Phoenix's 7 p.m. game with New Orleans.

Although O'Neal has been out with a hip injury, there is a belief that he will pass the physical because he is in great condition and is said to be at 312 pounds (down from his listed 325 pounds) with low body fat.

He seems to be a motivated player too, having jumped on a plane this morning after talking to several of the Suns, such as Steve Nash and Amaré Stoudemire, on Tuesday night.

"I will not let you down," O'Neal told Nash on the phone.

O'Neal's soon-to-be former teammates are in Detroit today.

"Nothing has been completed," Heat coach and President Pat Riley told the Miami Herald today. "These things have backed up before."

The Herald, which broke the trade's news Tuesday, also quoted Heat star Dwyane Wade, saying, "I have no reaction because I don't know the truth. Until that time comes, this is the NBA. I'm not surprised at anything."

Phoenix will have to sign another player after completing the trade because it will be one man shy of the league's 13-man roster minimum. Richie Frahm would likely be a possibility because he spent training camp and preseason with the Suns and was recently with the Clippers.

O'Neal's former Lakers teammate, Kobe Bryant, was quoted in today's Los Angeles Times as saying, "I know he likes warm weather. Other than that, I don't think too much about it."

New Orleans/BCS Game was awesome!!

I was in town compliments of Allstate for the BCS Championship.





I got some recommendations from a post online beforehand

http://niketalk.yuku.com/sreply/288276/t/Any-recommendations-for-my-trip-to-New-Orleans-.html

So I wasn't able to get to Dick and Jennys on Sat, since we got in late around 10...and Sunday and Monday they were closed. They open around 5PM so Tuesday I went home without being able to visit.

Plum St. Snowballs(near Tulane University) was closed for the season(not sure when they open again), so I went down the street (by referral by the lady who told me Plum St. Snowballs was closed) to this shop called Queen of the Ball.
Norma who runs the shop was very hospitable...got a Strawberry w cream snowball...it was awesome, but warning your mouth will bleed artificial red until you get back to rinse and brush...

Beignets and Cafe Au lait at Cafe Du Monde - they also have a satellite location in the Riverwalk...there is a also a nice little cafe in that shopping area called Creole Delicacies - homemade taste - I had their lunch specials twice - red beans and rice/Cajun Pork Roast one day and "Slap Ya Mama" Baked Chicken and the sweet tea is great!
Here is a link to their menu -

http://www.cookincajun.com/pdfs/Cookin%20Cajun%20Cafe%20Menu%20(3).pdf

They also offer cooking classes and the store for cooking is the main storefront.
also try Cafe Beignet on Royal - I liked their cajun hashbrowns
I couldn't get to Domelise for PoBoys due to time contraints but I went to Johnny's Po Boys on Saint Louis St. in the French Quarter and the ham and cheese was awesome(that's just my favorite sandwich anywhere - I really should have tried the Crab or Shrimp - next time).
also don't take the cab, I only took it once on the last day bc I was pressed for time, but the Haitian dood didn't even know where plum st(near Tulane) was..he also took his time with the route going the long route..letting people turn and pass just to run up the fare.
Just take the RTA streetcar(I took it back to Canal St/French Quarter) - it's only 1.25 until you get off of the car.

BCS Bowl was awesome..first time in the Superdome...I was pulling for LSU but really have no allegiances to college football - can't really say too much for the lowly Terrapins of UMDCP or Cal St Long Beach's nonexistent football program. Might just start rooting for LSU.
